Adaptive response to DNA and chromosomal damage induced by X-rays in human blood lymphocytes
18 Jan 2007
Abstract excerpt
Nucleoid sedimentation, single-cell gel electrophoresis (comet assay) and premature chromosome condensation (PCC) technique were utilized to estimate the involvement of DNA strand breaks and chromosomal damage in radio-adaptive response of stimulated human lymphocytes. Conditioning of cells with 0.02 Gy X-rays rendered them more resistant to single- and double-strand DNA breaks produced by 1 Gy challenging...
